Life changing

Extremely helpful in how it walks you through recognizing emotional abuse and healing yourself from it. It not only addresses the causes of how somebody allows themself to be emotionally abused and is often unable to extricate themselves front the abusive relationship, but it addresses how the abuser get there and how he/she can also make the necessary changes to stop the cycle of abuse.

This is gold.

definitely I'll need to purchase this book. it just brings light into a whole bunch of darkness in your life. so useful!!!

Covers both sides of the problem

As a victim of emotional abuse, it’s easy to think I would never do that to someone else. This book helps show how the roles can flip-flop, and a victim can become abusive. It also offers hope, where other books tell you to flee the relationship.

Amazing SELF GROWTH

I cannot summarize my entire life in this review, but I can say that this book was recommended by my therapist that I’ve been seeing every week for the past six months, and I’ve loved listening to every minute of it. The accountability and self growth I’ve gone through just by actively listening to this book and facing myself through the process has been very challenging, but highly gratifying. Those I love, including my two young children will endure less abuse and more love and joy. Kudos to Beverly Engle. What an intelligent and truth spoken woman. Thank you for your help, Beverly.

Great read

Very educated advice. if you're looking for answers, this book will provide more than a few.

Great

I was worried that this would be another book that just blames every problem you experience on your partner and being a bit too soft but instead, this was a very balanced perspective on abuse and how to resolve the issues

Chapter 14 - How to Solve your Victim Role

Very interesting. Both stances if you are the abuser or the victim. Explanation of emotional abuse is how this book started. I like that it said that was a severe damage to the self and the relationship. Not just belittling but to control, demean by degrading, berating, negating your feelings and intimidation, Other threats like Symbolic Violence: as kicking and slamming doors, throwing objects,
I'm very happy to endorse this book. Its brought a lot of light.
